A comprehensive dataset for the thermal conductivity of ice Ih for application to planetary ice shells.

ABSTRACT: Contemporary models representing the thermal conductivity of ice Ih as a function of temperature are based on data from published experiments that span over a century. Each model is derived using specific datasets with distinct experimental setups, temperature ranges, and uncertainties. Model errors introduced by inaccurate digitization and biased datapoints are challenging to trace due to a lack of transparency of the primary data. This dataset is a collection of published thermal conductivity data for ice Ih, including both tabulated and digitized data, presented in the original units. Specific samples or pressure conditions are noted where applicable. The dataset also includes a survey of published thermal conductivity models, providing the valid temperature range, accuracy and uncertainty (where noted in the original publication), and the primary data sources. Importantly, the dataset includes notes that were contained in the original publication or subsequent publications that provide additional context for the data. This dataset is used to derive a new thermal conductivity model which best represents the thermal conductivity of ice Ih for temperatures greater than 30 K. Statistics are provided to evaluate the fit of each thermal conductivity model in the survey of published models to the comprehensive dataset presented here. This dataset is constructed in support of the work "New insights into temperature-dependent ice properties and their effect on ice shell convection for icy ocean worlds" [1].

Electrical conductivity of ice VII.

Project description:It was discovered that a peak appears near a pressure of Pc = 10 GPa in the electrical conductivity of ice VII as measured through impedance spectroscopy in a diamond anvil cell (DAC) during the process of compression from 2 GPa to 40 GPa at room temperature. The activation energy for the conductivity measured in the cooling/heating process between 278 K and 303 K reached a minimum near Pc. Theoretical modelling and molecular dynamics simulations suggest that the origin of this unique peak is the transition of the major charge carriers from the rotational defects to the ionic defects.

Conductivity-limiting bipolar thermal conductivity in semiconductors.

Project description:Intriguing experimental results raised the question about the fundamental mechanisms governing the electron-hole coupling induced bipolar thermal conduction in semiconductors. Our combined theoretical analysis and experimental measurements show that in semiconductors bipolar thermal transport is in general a "conductivity-limiting" phenomenon, and it is thus controlled by the carrier mobility ratio and by the minority carrier partial electrical conductivity for the intrinsic and extrinsic cases, respectively. Our numerical method quantifies the role of electronic band structure and carrier scattering mechanisms. We have successfully demonstrated bipolar thermal conductivity reduction in doped semiconductors via electronic band structure modulation and/or preferential minority carrier scatterings. We expect this study to be beneficial to the current interests in optimizing thermoelectric properties of narrow gap semiconductors.

Preparation of Boron Nitride Nanoplatelets via Amino Acid Assisted Ball Milling: Towards Thermal Conductivity Application.

Project description:Hexagonal boron nitride nanoplatelets (BNNPs) have attracted widespread attention due to their unique physical properties and their peeling from the base material. Mechanical exfoliation is a simple, scalable approach to produce single-layer or few-layer BNNPs. In this work, two amino acid grafted boron nitride nanoplatelets, Lys@BNNP and Glu@BNNP, were successfully prepared via ball milling of h-BN with L-Lysine and L-Glutamic acid, respectively. It was found that the dispersion state of Lys@BNNP and Glu@BNNP in water had been effectively stabilized due to the introduction of amino acid moieties which contained a hydrophilic carboxyl group. PVA hydrogel composites with Lys@BNNP and Glu@BNNP as functional fillers were constructed and extensively studied. With 11.3 wt% Lys@BNNP incorporated, the thermal conductivity of Lys@BNNP/PVA hydrogel composite was up to 0.91 W m-1K-1, increased by 78%, comparing to the neat PVA hydrogel. Meanwhile, the mechanical and self-healing properties of the composites were simultaneously largely enhanced.

Analytical dataset of Ecuadorian cocoa shells and beans.

Project description:Full analytical data of Ecuadorian cocoa wastes (raw shells) and beans (as benchmark), are herein reported. A detailed characterization of production residues may pave the road to a zero-waste strategy for the cocoa industry. Multiple analytical techniques have been exploited to define the composition of the matrices, among them: elemental analyses, FTIR, Py-GC/MS/FID and UHPLC-ESI-MS/MS. Quali-quantitative data of carbohydrates, lipids, lignin, polyphenols, alkaloids and proteins have been obtained by Py-GC/MS/FID and UHPLC-ESI-MS/MS. Assignations are fully supported by literature references. The FAMEs composition of lipophilic UAE extract is also reported for sake of comparison with cocoa butter. This data collection completes a wider valorization work, "Cocoa bean shell waste valorisation; extraction from lab to pilot-scale cavitational reactors" (Grillo et al., 2018).

Thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity of fullerene-based nanofluids.

Project description:Owing to their outstanding characteristics, carbon based nanofluids (CbNFs) have been applied to various advanced heat transfer and cooling technologies. It was claimed that these CbNFs can considerably improve the properties of the base working fluids. Among all the thermal characteristics, the thermal conductivity (λ) is regarded as the primary parameter to be considered for the application of nanofluids (NFs). In the present research study we measured for the first time both λ and thermal diffusivity (aT) of very stable fullerene (C60)-based NFs in liquid phase (1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene and 1,2-dicholorobenzene) by the transient multi-current hot wire technique at atmospheric pressure in a wide range of temperature (254-323 K). Similar to the base liquids (BLs), we observed a slight decrease in λ with an increase in temperature. Additionally, compared to the BLs λ was reduced upon the addition of C60. The results were compared with the predicted ones using different theoretical models. Not much variation in aT was observed between the C60 NFs and the corresponding BLs due partly to the small variation of λ with the addition of C60.

funRiceGenes dataset for comprehensive understanding and application of rice functional genes.

Project description:BackgroundAs a main staple food, rice is also a model plant for functional genomic studies of monocots. Decoding of every DNA element of the rice genome is essential for genetic improvement to address increasing food demands. The past 15 years have witnessed extraordinary advances in rice functional genomics. Systematic characterization and proper deposition of every rice gene are vital for both functional studies and crop genetic improvement.FindingsWe built a comprehensive and accurate dataset of ∼2800 functionally characterized rice genes and ∼5000 members of different gene families by integrating data from available databases and reviewing every publication on rice functional genomic studies. The dataset accounts for 19.2% of the 39 045 annotated protein-coding rice genes, which provides the most exhaustive archive for investigating the functions of rice genes. We also constructed 214 gene interaction networks based on 1841 connections between 1310 genes. The largest network with 762 genes indicated that pleiotropic genes linked different biological pathways. Increasing degree of conservation of the flowering pathway was observed among more closely related plants, implying substantial value of rice genes for future dissection of flowering regulation in other crops. All data are deposited in the funRiceGenes database (https://funricegenes.github.io/). Functionality for advanced search and continuous updating of the database are provided by a Shiny application (http://funricegenes.ncpgr.cn/).ConclusionsThe funRiceGenes dataset would enable further exploring of the crosslink between gene functions and natural variations in rice, which can also facilitate breeding design to improve target agronomic traits of rice.

Study on Low Thermal-Conductivity of PVDF@SiAG/PET Membranes for Direct Contact Membrane Distillation Application.

Project description:In order to enhance the separation performance and reduce the heat loss of transmembrane for membrane distillation, the thermal efficiency and hydrophobicity of the membrane distillation need to be simultaneously enhanced. In this work, a polyvinylidene difluoride/polyethylene glycol terephthalate (PVDF/PET) hydrophobic/hydrophilic membrane has been prepared by non-solvent phase induction method. Nanosized silica aerogel (SiAG) with high porosity has been added to the composite membranes. The modifying effects and operating conditions on permeate flux and thermal efficiency in direct contact membrane distillation (DCMD) are investigated. Furthermore, the latent heat of vaporization and the heat transfer across the membranes have been compared for SiAG addition, which indicates that the composite PVDF@SiAG/PET membranes demonstrate a great potential for distillation-separation application due to their high heat efficiency.

New Insights into the Volume Isotope Effect of Ice Ih from Polarizable Many-Body Potentials.

Project description:The anomalous volume isotope effect (VIE) of ice Ih is calculated and analyzed based on the quasi-harmonic approximation to account for nuclear quantum effects in the Helmholtz free energy. While a lot of recently developed polarizable many-body potential functions give a normal VIE contrary to experimental results, we find that one of them, MB-pol, yields the anomalous VIE in good agreement with the most recent high-resolution neutron diffraction measurements─better than DFT calculations. The short-range three-body terms in the MB-pol function, which are fitted to CCSD(T) calculations, are found to have a surprisingly large influence. A vibrational mode group decomposition of the zero-point pressure together with a hitherto unconsidered benchmark value for the intramolecular stretching modes of H2O ice Ih obtained from Raman spectroscopy data unveils the reason for the VIE: a delicate competition between the latter and the librations.

Thermal Diffusivity and Conductivity of Polyolefins by Thermal Lens Technique.

Project description:A mode-mismatched thermal lens spectrometry (TLS) technique, in a pump-probe two-laser-beam configuration, was employed for the experimental determination of the thermal properties of four selected well-characterized polyolefin homopolymer films. We investigated the thermal diffusivity (D) and thermal conductivity (κ) of high-density polyethylene, low-density polyethylene, linear low-density polyethylene, and polypropylene. We also measured the structural properties (i.e., average molecular weight, polydispersity index, branching number), along with the rheological and thermal properties (i.e., melting point, specific heat capacity Cp, degree of crystallinity) of samples by high-temperature gel permeation chromatography (HT-GPC), rheometric mechanical spectrometry (RMS), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and densitometry. The relationship between microstructural properties such as degree of crystallinity, D, and κ was investigated. The results show that there is good correlation between the degree of crystallinity and D. The TL technique enables measurement of D in semitransparent thin films within an uncertainty of 4%.

Opacity and conductivity measurements in noble gases at conditions of planetary and stellar interiors.

Project description:The noble gases are elements of broad importance across science and technology and are primary constituents of planetary and stellar atmospheres, where they segregate into droplets or layers that affect the thermal, chemical, and structural evolution of their host body. We have measured the optical properties of noble gases at relevant high pressures and temperatures in the laser-heated diamond anvil cell, observing insulator-to-conductor transformations in dense helium, neon, argon, and xenon at 4,000-15,000 K and pressures of 15-52 GPa. The thermal activation and frequency dependence of conduction reveal an optical character dominated by electrons of low mobility, as in an amorphous semiconductor or poor metal, rather than free electrons as is often assumed for such wide band gap insulators at high temperatures. White dwarf stars having helium outer atmospheres cool slower and may have different color than if atmospheric opacity were controlled by free electrons. Helium rain in Jupiter and Saturn becomes conducting at conditions well correlated with its increased solubility in metallic hydrogen, whereas a deep layer of insulating neon may inhibit core erosion in Saturn.
